Besides iConn, we use Issues and Controversies from Facts on File. I also have their Issues and Controversies in American History. I encourage the use of our subscription to Encyclopedia Britannica as an alternate to Wikipedia that also gives a link to “the Web’s Best Sources” on all of its topics. The expensive databases, the New York Times Historical Database and Ebsco’s Literary Reference Center are essential to Junior research projects in Social Studies and English.

We are reviewing our databases. I was wondering what are your top two databases that are used by your students? Thanks for your input.
